Thanks! I’m one month post-op, and things have gone pretty well.

On the other hand, I can’t blame the kid for wanting to escape that nonsense.

Moving out at 15 for me would have meant moving to my grandmothers two blocks away, which would have lasted for about a day before my grandfather would have sat me down for a talk and been like ‘go home, you don’t know shit, I’ll help you learn how to do the car and everything, but get that degree first.’

My mom made all my doctor appointments until I was in my mid-20s and we didn’t even live in the same state.

He’s not looking to move out on his own dime.

oh.my.god...I misread your comment in the most horrible way, I read too fast and thought you had written -“When I was fifteen my mom smashed my fist up and pulled all of the bones out so I wouldn’t choke.”. I was like, that sounds....traumatic? Oops, sorry :/

Productive? I don’t think he’s ever done anything except write inane Twitter and Instagram posts. He was in a bad movie with his dad. What has he done that doesn’t scream “I’m a spoiled brat with famous parents?”

Oooh good point. I didn’t make that connection. Scientologists think children are fully formed, mini-adults, so of course a 15 year old is ready to move out.

Why is nobody talking about how they also just casually let their kids stop going to school at a super young age and never replaced it with any academic homeschool program?

When I was fifteen my mom still mashed my fish up and pulled all of the bones out so I wouldn’t choke.

I like Sarah Paulson a lot, but this coming from a beautiful, thin, blonde, white woman is a little rich.

‘He’s right. The time is now. He’s 15. It’s time for him to leave the house.’

Wow, and I thought my mom was irresponsible for letting me move out at 17 the summer before my senior year of high school. I found a super cheap sublease, and I had a job. I often couldn’t afford food or anything except rent, electricity, and gas, but I was just happy to live on my own.

She keeps saying emancipated but he only wanted them to pay for him a mansion of his own. He didn’t want to be emancipated from their money. Any teenager can move out when their parents are rich and can afford to buy them another home in a rich, safe neighborhood and to hire a staff to take care of all their needs.…

I couldn’t cut my own food until my 40's.

I’m not sure it’s a secret.

It’s cool, he’s 17 now.

Jesus Christ. Will and Jada Smith are the worst fucking parents.

I wasn’t conscious until I was in my 30's.

A child’s brain isn’t fully developed until they’re 24 or so. There is NO way that Jayden was prepared to live on his own at 15.
